Splendid Delights to Sink Your Teeth Into

We are led by our passions for all things born of the past and found in the present.

Anything can become art

We found this chandelier at Anthropologie in Carmel by the Sea, CA. It is a testament to the fact that if you give a true artist just about any medium, they can delight the eye with the most amazing things. Take for instance all the gathered objects, from spoons to silver trays turned upside down to create the layers, to strands of vintage jewelry, an old wind up alarm clock, and so on. We ourselves have been fortunate to be a part of Anthropologie's design team and to help with the artistic frosting of a newly acquired space. A visual team from all over the United States swoops in to rescue a plain Jane, turning her into a visual treat for the eyes.

~Is this art or utilitarian, or both?~
